Hire the Best Lawn Care Service in Boise
In Treasure Valley, summers are drier than a Boise riverbed in late August, and the intermittent snowfall can leave turf patchy and struggling. LawnStarter Pros offer customized lawn care services to help you navigate these extremes.
From managing the sun-baked soil in July with deep watering techniques to prepping your yard for those surprise snow flurries with proper fertilization, we'll keep your yard thriving through thick and thin.
Hereβs what lawn care in Boise looks like:
Best Grass Types for Boise
Boise falls in USDA hardiness zone 7a, which means the climate can support both cool-season and warm-season grasses β with caveats.
Cool-season varieties are a natural fit β most of the year β but enter dormancy in the summer thanks to heat and drought. On the other hand, warm-season grasses struggle during the winter but bounce back in the spring.
- Kentucky Bluegrass: This cool-season cultivar rewards homeowners with a lush, durable turf that recovers well from winter frost.
- Fine Fescue: Another cool-season grass, it thrives with minimal fertilizer and water.
- Tall Fescue: Its deep roots make this cool-season turf an excellent choice for Boise's hilly terrains, offering erosion control and stability.
- Buffalograss: Adaptable to Boise's dry landscapes, like south-facing lawns, this warm-season grass maintains a robust green during Idahoβs summers.
When Should You Plant Grass Seed? Plant cool-season grass seeds between late August and early October. For warm-season turf like Bermuda, the ideal planting window is from May to June.
When Should You Mow Your Lawn? During the spring and fall, mow your cool-season grass weekly. As the summer sun intensifies, switch to mowing your warm-season grass every five to seven days.
Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Boise
Boise's diverse landscape, from sun-drenched hillsides to shady groves, creates a patchwork of microclimates. These pockets of varying temperatures and humidity offer sanctuary to different lawn pests and diseases, such as:
- Chinch Bugs: They desiccate turf, creating telltale brown, wilted patches.
- Armyworms: They march across lawns in destructive waves, devouring blades and leaving brown trails in their wake.
- Powdery Mildew: This fungus smothers grass blades and weakens turf.
- Take-All Root Rot: Another fungus, it stunts root growth and leads to patchy brown areas
